Does USAID provide scholarships to students?
USAID does not provide scholarships for undergraduates seeking to study in the United States or overseas. Some USAID missions offer limited funding for post-graduate training and education. Please contact the USAID office in your home country for information. Contact information for USAID missions in Africa, including postal address, fax, and telephone number is available on each country/regional program page located at the Africa Country and Regional Programs page. A list of USAID missions that have web sites is also available. USAID has eight fellowship programs to provide individuals with practical work experience in the areas of humanitarian assistance and economic and social development. For additional information and a list of organizations with scholarship programs, refer to the USAID Scholarship Information page. In addition, there are many other websites that provide information about scholarship/fellowship opportunities for international students: The Africa-America Institute
